UER 67 - Aftermath

It took Sidhel sometime searching the bodies for a key to the cage, while making a small pile of papers and any other item she found. Gwen had just entered the building as the blond ranger at last found what she suspected was the key to the cage. Reyna she noticed kept watching her closely as if afraid she would suddenly leave. Sidhel nodded giving her a smile which cause the human finally to smile, making the ranger guess the shock was at last wearing off.

"Sam's, leg is broken," Gelwenil called as she checked over her lover.

"Damn," Sidhel muttered as she unlocked the cage and helped the twins out of their prison. "You both okay?" she asked, feeling the blood drain from her face seeing for the princesses growing stomachs for the first time. The only answer was a sobbing hug from each woman, that she returned in full. Releasing Mariel, she turned back towards Reyna holding out her arms, softly asking, "How's my girl?"

The human answered by leaping into her arms, to deliver the kiss that she promise herself when she would be rescued, knowing deep down that it would be Sidhel that would save her. The ranger herself was lost in the kiss, to the point that she almost forgot when she was, when someone started clearing their throat. Breaking the kiss, Reyna held a hand over her stomach, muttering, "Ouch, I'm sorry, love, but that's the last time I'm jumping on you while your wearing that armor." Hearing the human's words, Sidhel knew she was smiling like an idiot, but didn't care.

"Sorry to break up this love feast," Gwen said while holding up her much larger lover, "But can we get Sam to the hospital, and the princesses home?" Glancing at the bodies, she shook her head, remembering the other one on the roof. "Then we better get a hold of...Goddess can't believe I'm saying this, Kalyel, we have a few bodies for them to look over."

Regaining her senses, Sidhel shook her head, "I need your help," she announced stepped back from Reyna, then looked at the princesses, trying to comfort one another. Then shifted her gaze to Gwen and Samantha, "We got the kidnappers, but we can't let the leader get away, I need all your help to catch her."
"You know who it is?" Gwen said in shock.

Nodding, Sidhel held up her hands as they all started talking at once, "Wait...Wait." As the group quiet down she took a deep breath, "Knowing and proof are two different things, I need time, a few hours time." Glancing around with a sigh, the ranger looked at the princesses, "I know you been through hell, seen Jhael killed, kidnapped, stripped, wondering if you'll live or die. I know you want to go home, but I'm asking you two." Shifting her gaze to Reyna, "You.....Love." She said with a smile, before looking at last at Samantha. "And you...I know your hurting, but there's a place I want take you all...Its safe, but we can't let anyone know that you all been rescued."

"Sidhel," Gwen spoke up, only to pause when her lover shook her head with a smirk, "Give me some aspirin, and I'll be fine." Sam said while easing herself on the floor.

Turning to the twins, she walked over taking the hand of each, "I know you want to go home, see your mother, feel safe, but I need your help to make sure the person who arranged all this, is stopped." Aediriel, took a deep breath before gazing at her sister, who gave her a nod.

"Don't even ask," Reyna said as she padded over to the ranger, joining her hand with the others, "What do you need?"
Unable to help herself, the blond leaned down kissing Reyna, then after a pause, kissed the twins, "Okay," She said turning to look at Gwen and Sam. "Gwen, I need you to go through all the stuff I pulled from the purist, I need anything, names, addresses, especially anything about that blue haired bitch." Looking at the three former hostages, she nodded, "I need you all to remember anything that they said, no matter how minor."
Moving over to the small pile of papers, Gwen could not help but think how many rules they were currently breaking by not reporting the rescue. "You know, Director Tathmin, will have a shit fit when she hears about you keeping this quiet...I mean your still suspended."

Smiling, Sidhel looked over that the petite ranger, "Why? I didn't kill anybody."
